>"straight" is actually Frontline -> Ikeda -> Rieks -> mailinglist
In other words, straight. Besides, as you might still remember, the Japanese
came to the Tilburg-fair. Sander met them there and they told something
about this new MSX project back then. And about Frontline> Mailinglist etc.,
if it's an article that is translated, there is completely no loss of
information.
>Besides, is a rumour more reliable if it comes from Japan?
Please try to understand that things like this can't be simply done away as
'rumours'. Like I wrote in what you could almost call an essay before, it's
somewhat insulting towards the Japanese.

Was it? Have you been to Japan? Have you read MSX Magazine (which is, after
all, a publication of ASCII)?
Rieks.
